David Wilkerson challenges believers to move beyond a self-focused "faith" that demands blessings to discover true faith that's born from intimate fellowship with Jesus, revealing that what most call faith today God doesn't even recognize as faith at all.

Main Points:

Most of what passes for faith today—the prosperity gospel of "name it and claim it"—is a counterfeit that God will reject because it focuses on self-need rather than seeking his heart.
True faith is born only from the womb of intimacy with God—you cannot manufacture it through books, sermons, or formulas, but only through quality time alone with him.
Every hero of faith had one thing in common: they were so hungry for God's presence that they built altars everywhere, becoming friends who shared his deepest secrets.
Intimacy with Jesus produces an ever-increasing dissatisfaction with this world—you'll find yourself looking for that heavenly city, that deeper place in him.
When the disciples asked Jesus to increase their faith, he told them to come minister to him at his table—faith explodes when you hear his voice in the quiet place.
God is literally pleading with his people: "Don't go yet, stay with me"—so few linger in his presence to hear what he desperately wants to share.
Faith without intimacy is no faith at all—it must flow from a relationship so real that spending time with him becomes your greatest joy, not religious duty.
